The release date for Legendary’s Pacific Rim Uprising is being pushed by a month from February 23 of next year to March 23, Universal said this afternoon. That places it on the same weekend as Liongate’s Jamie Foxx-starring Robin Hood and one week before Steven Spielberg’s Ready Player One from Warner Bros.

The date change is curious as it had been on a clear weekend previously but was only a week after Black Panther. The film, which is headlined by Star Wars’ John Boyega, is the follow-up to Pacific Rim which grossed $411 million globally in 2013.
